Chapter 255: One Bad Move

Wei Chi watched quietly at the brighter and brighter light of the fire on the city gate. He didn't know why the other party was doing this, to boost morale, or just to tease him?

But Wei Chi knew in his heart that he had already completed the work of delaying time and letting the enemy relax his vigilance. No matter how loudly this young general was at this time and how he was supported by the city soldiers, in Wei Chi Yuan's opinion, he was just a turtle in an urn.

Once the news of their reinforcements being wiped out came, Wei Chi Yuan wanted to see why these guys persisted!

No matter how strong a person's will is, there is still a limit, and there is still a weakness, and what Wei Chi Yuan wants to do, or is doing, is to attract the attention of this person, and then concentrate the elite strength to punch this weakness.

Let him not survive, not death!

"Ah Shun, let's go back." Wei Chi Yu said in a low voice, and the cheers on the city were already clearly telling him that continuing to delay time here would not only have no effect, but might threaten himself.

Wei Chi Yuan has been fighting on the battlefield for half his life, of course he is not the kind of young man who will lead the team to charge into battle when he is hot-blooded, he knows how to cherish his life, or where his life should be used.

In this troubled world, you have to pay attention to a value for money!

And just when Wei Chishun was about to give the order to start the siege of the city, a general rode his horse and rushed to the side of Wei Chi and his son, his face was full of surprise, and while bowing his hand, he couldn't help but speak first: "Qi Qi two generals, the southern gate of this Zhangshan County suddenly opened, and a team of Daoyi cavalry rushed out, killing our two teams of scouts, and now they are heading south!" ”

"What?!" Wei Chishun didn't believe his ears and raised his head suddenly.

And Wei Chi raised his eyebrows, Huo Ran turned around, but he heard it clearly.

"Yes, I guess that was half an hour ago." The Northern Zhou general panted and said, "The enemy is simply and neatly, our two teams of scouts, a total of more than fifty people, were almost wiped out by others in one face, if it weren't for the delay in waiting for their news, I'm afraid we would still be kept in the dark." ”

Wei Chishun's face changed, which showed that the number of people sent out by the enemy was not only fifty or even more than a hundred, but also nine times out of ten it was composed of elite scout veterans.

Even if the Northern Zhou army wanted to stop them or even catch up with them, I am afraid it would not be so simple.

On the top of the city not far away, the cheers had gradually subsided, and under the flickering firelight, a crossbowman named Nan Chen stood solemnly. As long as the Northern Zhou army dared to continue to take a step forward, they would definitely not hesitate to cast arrows.

Obviously, the Nanchen people in this city had already anticipated their plan, and all their previous vanity and grievances, all their cynicism, were just to delay time.

Same purpose as Wei Chi Yuan.

Wei Chi delayed the time in order to make the Nanchen people relax their vigilance and to be able to buy the ambush soldiers a chance to advance, and it was obvious that the Nanchen general in the city was delaying time in order to buy time for the team he sent out to warn.

"I didn't expect ······" Wei Chishun muttered in disbelief.

And Wei Chi squinted, even if he had been on the battlefield for many years, he had an uncontrollable sense of failure and frustration at this time. In the face of this little-known Nan Chen young general, his own planning and design were useless.

The chess is one move, and Wei Chi Yu doesn't know what the consequences will be chained. And he didn't dare to think about it at this time. The entire Northern Zhou army has already moved, and there is no possibility of stopping!

In an instant, Wei Chi had an illusion that this was not a tall Zhangshan County in front of him, and he might not be able to climb over it again.

"Daddy, do you want to order the cavalry to pursue?" Wei Chishun hurriedly said.

Wei Chi Yu snorted: "What is there to pursue?" Everyone has been running out for half an hour, even if we send more cavalry, can we catch up? What's more, how could the cavalry of the brigade bypass this Zhangshan County City? ”

On the west side of the county seat is the continuous Jingshan mountain range, and the distance between the city wall and the steep hillside is not large, which is just enough to prevent the enemy from climbing the hillside and threatening the city, and at the same time, the crossbowmen on the city can control the road between the hillside and the city wall.

Therefore, it is difficult for even a large army of soldiers and horses to pass directly in the west of the city, let alone launch a siege in the west of the city.

"Then we ······ now" Wei Chishun knew that his father was in a very bad mood, and his face was surprisingly wrong, but he still had to ask this question now.

Wei Chi Yu looked back at Zhangshan County, gritted his teeth and said: "Siege the city, the old man will give you two days, and after two days, no matter whether the enemy's reinforcements arrive or not, the old man must walk on the road to Jiangling City!" ”

Feeling the anger in Wei Chi Shun's voice, including Wei Chi Shun, all the generals had a look on their faces. The old general Rong Ma has been a good man all his life, and it can be said that he is used to seeing strong winds and waves, and there are not many times when he is so angry.

"Crossbowmen ready, trebuchets ready!" Wei Chishun didn't have time to comfort his father, so he ordered loudly. He also knew that the best way to comfort his father was to screw off the head of the damn Li Xinchen on the opposite wall!

"First team, ready, ladder, ready!" Wei Chishun's command echoed in the darkness.

The Northern Zhou army, which was originally silent, suddenly became busy, and the neat torch sea seemed to be blown by a strong wind, and the waves were churning between the whiskers!

But Wei Chi Yi just quietly watched Yu Chi Shun give the order, his face was sad or joyless, only the slaughter before the big war. His gaze never left the county town of Zhangshan.

He didn't know if he could make all the soldiers move forward regardless of life and death if he gave the death order, but he knew very well that with the time he had just wasted, there was less and less time left for him now.

It's not just that I'm also old, and I don't know how long I can go into battle in armor; It's not just because Jiangling City is under the siege of Nan Chen's army at this time, and it is in danger; It's because ······

For the first time, Wei Chi Yuan turned his head to look at the darkness behind the sea of torches in the north.

Ever since Yu Wenyong fell ill and ordered the army to slow down the pace of going north, Wei Chi Hui had a sense of foreboding. He knew that he had bad assumptions about His Majesty's health, which was not something that a courtier should do, but Wei Chi Yuan, as an old minister of the Three Dynasties, knew better what it would bring to the entire Northern Zhou Dynasty once such a thing happened.

And at this time, I am one move worse!
